A/HRC/40/3 standard operating procedures), it now needs to move further towards operationalizing that work. The growing challenge is how to translate international norms and standards into tools acceptable to policy and decision makers, which will help them better understand how they and their people will benefit from protecting and promoting human rights. 101. In view of the existential threat of climate change, with the capacity to profoundly undermine human rights, the High Commissioner sees a critical need for OHCHR to engage more substantively and proactively around Sustainable Development Goal 13 and in protecting the right to a healthy environment. Environmental harms deepen inequalities, disproportionately affecting those who have the least. The Human Rights Council has made it eminently clear that addressing those challenges is the responsibility of everyone and a fundamental issue of human rights. The denial of that responsibility has inflicted countless preventable environmental catastrophes on human beings. 102. Overall, in support of the human rights-based commitment to “leave no one behind” in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, OHCHR will ensure that its programmes consistently bring people in from the outside, providing opportunities for those with the least who have been rendered invisible. For the Sustainable Development Goals to serve the purpose for which they were designed, people who have been marginalized and discriminated against must be included in their implementation right across every goal to ensure that indeed no rights holder is left behind. More specifically, OHCHR will spotlight the human rights concerns of women, young people and persons with disabilities. 103. The High Commissioner is deeply committed to achieving gender equality and has pledged to implement a new programme that will strongly reinforce the integration of gender into the substantive work of the OHCHR field presences. In working with people deprived of their liberty, the issues that are important to women detainees as well as men need to be explored. Work on the right to freedom of peaceful assembly needs to include issues encountered by women protestors, including, if relevant, why women do not feel free to protest. Human rights monitoring in conflict situations needs to grasp the social and economic impact of violations on women, including on their health and welfare. It is critically important that all human rights responses to humanitarian crises integrate the prevention of maternal mortality. Internally, as international gender champion, the High Commissioner has pledged to achieve gender parity and to ensure that OHCHR implements the SecretaryGeneral’s gender equality strategy as best as it can. 104. The world is equally facing a crisis of youth unemployment and trade deficits that demonstrate the biases of the global elites against youth and against certain economies. Marginalizing youth from work opportunities and the poorest nations from the greatest benefits of economic development is a recipe for failure in development and peace and security. Amid the extraordinarily complex task of protecting the global economy, the High Commissioner believes that the world must do more to introduce human rights into the analysis and management of regional and global economies and decision-making thereon, and into macro-development financing. 105. Women, young people and persons with disabilities, while distinctively affected by economic instability and insecurity, marginalization and exclusion, are also agents of change. They are part of what the High Commissioner envisions as a global constituency for human rights. Beyond ensuring transparent and constructive engagement with all stakeholders, she wants to further extend partnerships, to reach out to new audiences, and open a dialogue that can inspire and mobilize people to defend and promote human rights. 106. Within the United Nations system, the High Commissioner is fully committed to enhancing strategic partnerships across the Organization. For instance, with the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women on protecting women human rights defenders; with the International Labour 15
